Feeling extremely broken. After a recent traumatic event, I experienced an intense period of depression. Self-care was neglected. It was like nothing I’ve ever felt before. Upon recovering, my hip length hair, which had been left in a bun for weeks, had to be cut off. A part of me is dead. I’d spent years growing it out and pouring all the love I possibly could into it. Now it’s gone. I feel like my feminine energy has been taken from me. The instinct to numb is VERY PRESENT. I know that will do nothing for my future health and hair, and I’m staying the course.
I feel like a broken teacup.

Honor the grief of the loss of hair. This could be an opportunity to explore other aspects of your femininity. Remind yourself that your a teapot that needs to be filled back up.

I’m sorry. I wish I knew what to say to help
Added you! I know hair is apart of a woman’s identity but just know it doesnt define your beauty.
Wish you well
